ON FREEDOM by Maggie Nelson was featured on Lit Hub’s “Most Anticipated Books of 2021, Part Two.” They write: “Maggie Nelson is an expert at distilling whatever topic she tackles into crystalline prose. She is the queen of the effortless jumping off point, catapulting her readers into the far reaches of Big Questions. In BLUETS, it was love and suffering filtered through the color blue. In THE ARGONAUTS, she gave us the story of a pregnancy that branched out into an exploration of identity, caretaking, and family. Now, as the title suggests, she has turned her attention to freedom. What is it? Who has it? And, more specifically, how does it relate to art, sex, drugs, and climate?” Graywolf Press will publish the book September 7, 2021.
